Exponential divided differences arise in numerical linear algebra, matrix-function evaluation, and quantum Monte Carlo simulations, where they serve as kernel weights for time evolution and observable estimation. Efficient and numerically…

Time series are difficult to monitor, summarize and predict. Segmentation organizes time series into few intervals having uniform characteristics (flatness, linearity, modality, monotonicity and so on). For scalability, we require fast…

We give the first polynomial-time algorithm for performing linear or polynomial regression resilient to adversarial corruptions in both examples and labels. Given a sufficiently large (polynomial-size) training set drawn i.i.d. from…

One of the most interesting questions about a group is if its word problem can be solved and how. The word problem in the braid group is of particular interest to topologists, algebraists and geometers, and is the target of intensive…

We consider the problem of finding the shortest possible period for an exactly periodic solution to some given autonomous ordinary differential equation. We show that, given a pair of Lyapunov-like observable functions defined over the…

We consider the disjoint bilinear programming problem in which one of the disjoint subsets has the structure of an acute-angled polytope. An optimality criterion for such a problem is formulated and proved, and based on this, a polynomial…

We present a comprehensive analysis of an algorithm for evaluating high-dimensional polynomials that are invariant under permutations and rotations. The key bottleneck is the contraction of a high-dimensional symmetric and sparse tensor…

We propose a simple O([n^5/\log n]L) algorithm for linear programming feasibility, that can be considered as a polynomial-time implementation of the relaxation method. Our work draws from Chubanov's "Divide-and-Conquer" algorithm [4], where…

A new presentation of the $n$-string braid group $B_n$ is studied. Using it, a new solution to the word problem in $B_n$ is obtained which retains most of the desirable features of the Garside-Thurston solution, and at the same time makes…

We present an algorithm for the following problem. Given a triangulated 3-manifold M and a (possibly non-simple) closed curve on the boundary of M, decide whether this curve is contractible in M. Our algorithm runs in space polynomial in…

We consider two basic algorithmic problems concerning tuples of (skew-)symmetric matrices. The first problem asks to decide, given two tuples of (skew-)symmetric matrices $(B_1, \dots, B_m)$ and $(C_1, \dots, C_m)$, whether there exists an…

We complete the complexity classification by degree of minimizing a polynomial over the integer points in a polyhedron in $\mathbb{R}^2$. Previous work shows that optimizing a quadratic polynomial over the integer points in a polyhedral…

The algorithm checks the propositional formulas for patterns of unsatisfiability.

Polynomial time reductions between problems have long been used to delineate problem classes. Simulation reductions also exist, where an oracle for simulation from some probability distribution can be employed together with an oracle for…

We present an algorithm that enumerates all the minimal triangulations of a graph in incremental polynomial time. Consequently, we get an algorithm for enumerating all the proper tree decompositions, in incremental polynomial time, where…

In 2010, A. Shpilka and I. Volkovich established a prominent result on the equivalence of polynomial factorization and identity testing. It follows from their result that a multilinear polynomial over the finite field of order 2 can be…

The analysis of observable phenomena (for instance, in biology or physics) allows the detection of dynamical behaviors and, conversely, starting from a desired behavior allows the design of objects exhibiting that behavior in engineering.…

In a recent paper, Brusco, K\"ohn and Steinley [Ann. Oper. Res. 206:611-626 (2013)] conjecture that the 2 bins special case of the one-dimensional minimax bin-packing problem with bin size constraints might be solvable in polynomial time.…

In the PATH COVER problem, one asks to cover the vertices of a graph using the smallest possible number of (not necessarily disjoint) paths. While the variant where the paths need to be pairwise vertex-disjoint, which we call PATH…

We address the classical knapsack problem and a variant in which an upper bound is imposed on the number of items that can be selected. We show that appropriate combinations of rounding techniques yield novel and powerful ways of rounding.…
